Global Construction Glass Market Outlook

Market Overview

Glass is a non-crystalline translucent material has found usage in the construction industry for centuries. Excellent physical and chemical qualities of glass like its U value, insulation properties, and workability into any shape, strength, light transmittance and recyclability make it a preferred material for construction purposes, compared to conventional building materials like brick or wood. Construction is one of the major end use industries of glass materials. The market for construction glass has witnessed growth in recent years owing to a rising construction industry and inclination towards energy efficient infrastructure worldwide. Glass is used in windows, canopies, roofs, walls or partitions, staircases and even floors of buildings both residential and commercial. Glasses of different chemical compositions are used in construction of buildings like soda lime, potash lime, potash lead, common and special glass. There are a variety of special glasses available, like foam, fiber, toughened and chromatic, providing a lot of benefits to buildings like heat insulation, UV protection, noise control, aesthetic appearance etc.
